Show HN: My New Puzzle Game
This is an idea I’ve been kicking around for a long time, and I decided to finally code it up. In the same way that Scrabble decomposes words into letters, what if there was a game that decomposed letters into sub-shapes? There’s a lot of directions this could go, and I’m still exploring the possibility space. Enjoy. Suggestions welcome. It doesn’t have a real name yet.
- g105b 2y agoNice idea and well implemented, but the puzzle seems too hard/abstract for me to understand. I can't really get a grasp of how to convert the first visual that looks like "ponauJ" into something that made sense of "Number two ___". Maybe if you could get the solution once or twice, it would be enough to teach me how to play it?
- shove 2y agoSo far the feedback has been pretty unanimous that this puzzle is too hard. I don’t disagree, however (spoiler alert) it can be solved in 4 moves. The next puzzle (which I’m hoping to release today or tomorrow) will err on the side of being “too easy”.
- newkj 2y agoIt was a bit intimidating at first, but then I kind of saw what the word should be. Still not sure how to solve it, I kind of overcomplicated it and made a lot of moves. Read your comment about 4 moves and it became a lot clearer.
- shove 2y agoNew puzzle just dropped, easier than the first
- newkj 2y agoyes very easy :D looking forward to todays
- mrankin 2y agoLove it! Don’t believe the feedback about difficulty. It just takes a minute to get in the right frame of mind to solve the puzzles.
